The Cardinals needed a receiver and they got one with Pro Bowl potential as a rookie. Marvin Harrison Jr. is as clean a prospect as they come and did not see a drop in production going from C.J. Stroud to Kyle McCord. This also creates depth for the rest of Arizona's roster, allowing Michael Wilson to be featured as a No. 2 wide receiver. Kyler Murray should be rejoicing right now.

Robinson isn’t a bad player, but he’s not the most dynamic guy on the defensive line. He’s a steady player who should be a solid piece for the Cardinals’ defensive line rotation, but that’s not necessarily the type of player that feels like a need in the first round. Still, he’s someone that will help the Cardinals up front.

The Cardinals traded back and got a cornerback with massive upside. The Cards are still building out their roster for the long term, so it makes sense that they would take someone who can pay off in a big way in the future. Brick by brick.

This is a great pick for the Cardinals. Benson might not be the shiftiest runner, but big backs with legitimate straight-line speed are always good money. Benson is a true home run hitter.

The Cardinals got a player who can provide good depth up front. He might not be a lot of long term starting potential, but he’s a body on the offensive line.

Good, big athlete for the Cardinals to pair with Trey McBride. This is the thunder to McBride’s lightning.

Jones adds versatile defensive back depth. Has the ability to grow into a starter at some point if things shake out for him, but he faces a log-jammed depth chart — which is a good thing for the Cardinals.
